I wasn't sure if this should go into problem diagnosis or turbo tech so im putting it here. If im wrong please move it. Ok so i put my new turbo on the other day and to my dismay the wastegate actuator comes about 1/2" from the radiator. I can't fit either fan back on now because of it. Obviously i can't run the car without atleast one fan and im rackin my brain on how to make it fit but i just dont see any options because this thing is huge! On a side note i have to clock the compressor housing slightly as the outlet is pointing directly at my motor mount and i can't fit the silicone elbow on to connect my lower intercooler pipe. One thing i do really like about this new turbo is that fact that my boost source for my MBC is right on the turbo :thumb: If you guys want some more angles just ask i can get them tonight and post them tomorrow.

On changing the actuater I don't know but you could always get push style fans on the front of your radiator. Nice turbo, Good Luck :thumb:
 
AGP has the wastegate actuator that bolts up to the top o2 housing bolt and that makes it sit on the other side of the manifold/turbo.
